He Will Fight for You
Mr. Mulgannon helped me tremendously with my DUI case in 2023. I was facing 5 years in prison, and with his help in writing an amazing letter about myself, it allowed the DA to accept our plea deal of 6 months house arrest and 5 years probation. I couldn't have done this without his help, and I'm forever grateful. I highly recommend Mr. Mulgannon if you are ever in legal trouble. He will fight for you!! I can happily say I have been sober 3 1/2 years!! Thank you, James!!

DismissedAssault Weapon & Drug Possession Charges
Client arrested in Solano County and charged with unlawful possession of assault weapons and possession of various contraband drugs for purpose of sale. The contraband was discovered after a warrantless search of the defendant's residence, followed by a second search pursuant to a warrant issued by the Superior Court. Thomas Maas filed a motion to dismiss the case due to the illegal warrantless search tainting the application for warrant allowing a second search. Upon hearing on the motion, the Superior Court dismisses case, finding that the initial illegal search tainted the second search pursuant to warrant and that the exclusionary rule of Mapp v. Ohio applies to exclude all fruit of the initial warrantless search. All charges dismissed.

What should I do if I'm stopped for suspected DUI?
Remain calm and cooperative. Provide necessary identification and documents, but limit other information offered. Politely decline field sobriety tests and request to speak with an attorney as soon as possible.
How long does a DUI stay on my record?
A DUI can stay on your driving record for several years, affecting insurance rates and background checks. The exact duration varies by state. In many places, DUIs stay on your criminal record indefinitely unless expunged through legal action.
What is an ignition interlock device?
An ignition interlock device is a breathalyzer connected to a vehicle’s ignition system, requiring the driver to blow a sober breath sample before starting the car. They are often mandated for repeat offenders or high BAC levels to ensure safe driving.
Can I refuse a breathalyzer test?
You can refuse a breathalyzer, but there are consequences. States have implied consent laws, so refusal often leads to automatic license suspension or revocation. It may also be used as evidence against you in court.
